On a DC for my g/g/mother Ellen MAGINNIS she is listed as a "hutkeepers wife". She died at Fletchers Creek (Marong?) in 1861 aged 52 years. Can anyone tell me what a "hutkeepers wife" did? Was it an alternative for todays "domestic duties"? Or was her husband a "Hutkeeper"? What was a "hut"? A rough boarding house? Any ideas? -- Best regards, Julie mailto:tropikkal@mytown.net.au
